Dope list of games! I hope they add a bit to it, specifically hoping for Card Fighters games! It's insane how well those games still hold up.

 

[BerryTogart]

Now if only they'd also release a switch controller with a stick similar to the NGPC one

 

[Rasubosu]

Damn and I bought the Gal's Fighters already. I do hope they offer the card game.

This would be amazing.

Of course, they should have added in CFC! Lost opportunity.

$8 each!? My god...

 

[Gaoh]

Can’t wait!!!

$8 each!? My god...

I agree. As much as I want to support this, I'm not sure I can. It should be $40-60 for all the first party games.

I bought it with the hopes they make another compilation. Hopefully they'll include Evolution, Cotton, and Rockman Battle & Fighters with the second compilation.

 

[NeoCverA]

This works for me.

Pretty solid but no Metal slug seems questionable.

Physical versions have been announced. For better or worse, it's through Limited Run Games.

I think it goes without saying, but you definitely need a third party controller to play these effectively. Kinda defeats playing these in handheld mode with a great deal of confidence.

Half of my daughters 4 different sets of joy cons have the nefarious drift problem going on. I took apart 1 and did the air puff thing but putting the rubber back on the knob has never been the same since.

These are handheld games afterall. Playing them on the big screen should be alright though.

Gonna play those on my 49" ultra-wide PC monitor in 4K resolution, as they were originally intended.

 

[Hattori Hanzo]

I play them on an IPS modded NGPC and a NeoPocket GameDrive. I kind of doubt SNK intended that on release.

I'm glad to see that NGPC is getting some love, but this collection is kind of pointless to me. The only reason to play the NGPC fighters was as a portable alternative to the MVS-based fighters. Now that the MVS-based stuff has a variety of portable solutions, I don't see the point of NGPC fighters anymore. To me, the games that really need to be ported are Cardfighters 1, Cardfighters 2, and the oddball stuff like Biomotor Unitron and Faselei that haven't really been redone elsewhere. I'd buy that collection. This collection, I'm skipping.
